@Sandford_Police I actually had a group of lads ask if had any Parma violets last night. Is there some new trend thing I am not clued up on?

#Halloween #TrickOrTreat2024 Parents Please check your child’s sweets bags carefully We have been advised that some children have found Parma Violets in theirs Be aware, be safe

@mtthwhgn I’ve gone in, watching it whilst I eat my lunch!

@mtthwhgn What a delightful night of TV. How was it, were you terrified? I was a bit too young to watch when it 1st came out. Maybe I still am? 😂

A reminder that emergency managers will be live-tweeting using #EPMOVIENIGHT

@ZlyukaKoshka @Ian__Ford Don’t forgot no flushing the toilet after 10pm if you’re in an apartment (my parents had this in one of theirs when they lived there!)

@Ian__Ford To add: you get a CHF300 ($350) fine if you recycle glass on Sunday. Other things that are banned on Sunday (on your OWN property): - Mowing your lawn - Washing your car - Hanging your laundry In some buildings you can't shower or do laundry after 22:00

None of these people ever read the fine print on Switzerland's gun laws.

@metoffice @MetEireann @KNMI I’m not sure I’ll be able keep a straight face writing Bert on reports and emails when he hits our shores. Also hope we don’t get to Mavis as that’ll certainly crack me up 😆 (sorry to all Berts and Marcis’ out there)

❗ Latest storm names announced ❗ Here are the #StormNames for 2024/25, announced with @MetEireann and @KNMI Do you know someone whose name is on the list? 🧵

@AndynBrown16 @MarshsideSchool Oh Andy, I had forgotten you lived in Southport. I’m so very sorry to your community and family and friends of all those whose lives were changed by this tragedy.

This evening with some of the team from @MarshsideSchool we laid this for Bebe & her family as part of our school family; but also for all those affected by this weeks events in #southport #southporttogether

@mtthwhgn Just imagine how many incident & crisis teams are under major pressure at the moment. It’s sparked some discussion here!

Again, the lord and saviour of emergency management has a gif for this…

@n_rh1992 @mtthwhgn We should probably have been trained by Disneyworld staff, I have never known such consistently positive people

@n_rh1992 @mtthwhgn Did you have a grimace on your face for weeks after? 😂

“There is an awful lot behind the scenes, …those two weeks is the culmination of years and years of work, and a lot of people," She could have been talking about emergency management!

@mtthwhgn We watched this the other night, classic. Looking forward to going to see Twisters

⏸️ a brief pause before things get really and whilst I eat dinner… #EPMOVIENIGHT will resume shortly!

It’s a spontaneous #EPMOVIENIGHT. I’m starting 1996’s #Twister in approx 5 minutes!

@TheSnowDreamer The most extensive flooding we’ve had was in 2007, think around 55,000 properties flooded. Glad it’s mainly grey with the odd spell of rain this summer (a little bit of sun would be appreciated though). Thankfully no rain based no. 1s this year 😁

UK and Ireland bottom of the barrel this summer in Europe whilst SE Europe roasts. I fear the picture will not dramatically change until much cooler temperatures return there. There was a very similar entrenched and opposing pattern in summer 2007 across Europe, when Southern Europe & Balkans experienced record breaking high temperatures and in UK we had floods. The amusing thing it was also the year Rihanna released her song 'Umbrella'.

@MartinSLewis Magnums back to old size, the chocolate bit in a Feast bigger than a postage stamp (I may have eaten too many ice-creams recently, to convince myself it’s summer!).

What #JustChangeItBackToHowItWas laws do you want to see eg "All Salt & Vinegar crisp packets by law should be blue" "Outlaw all 440ml beer and make them full pints" "Snickers should be made to be called Marathon again" Lets make Britain grate again.

@StephHatesPutin @domjoly @mrjamesob Me too 👌

Nobody talking about the awful Daniel Kawczynski being hurled out on his arse- almost as satisfying as Rees Mogg @mrjamesob

@NatashaaJackson We voted in Shrewsbury, as weren’t sure we’d be registered back in Shipley in time, managed to oust another one there. Hurrah for a change

Finally...

@CarolynOtley @HindsHelen @Selyst @Rubonist @n_rh1992 @hellturn @LucyGoBag @mtthwhgn @calps_h @chrisMcG4 @RobGrayston We kept topping up the cauldron with sweets post Halloween. It became the designated sweet vessel in the cupboard. Not sure when it got replaced 🤣

@HindsHelen @Selyst @Rubonist @n_rh1992 @hellturn @LucyGoBag @mtthwhgn @calps_h @chrisMcG4 @RobGrayston I have a cauldron from kids’ birthday parties (one mid-October, one mid November, so we had a lot of joint Halloween themed parties), so we’ve got this one…….. 🤣 🎃🧙👻

Stand aside the emergency biscuit barrel we obviously need a crisp cauldron! @Selyst @Rubonist @n_rh1992 @hellturn @LucyGoBag @mtthwhgn @calps_h @chrisMcG4 @RobGrayston

@mtthwhgn That is indeed an amazing cake, though I was confused by the thing at the top, is it a sparkler bomb? Many happy returns 🎁🎂🥳

Emergency Managers: presenting to you the best birthday cake! #EMGtwitter 💣 ☢️🦠🚇⭕️🔥 🎼 ✈️ 🧳 🇯🇵 🌸 🐱

@McDonaldsUK why is this bacon cheeseburger actually chicken and squished flat. Coupled with no cold drinks available. Such a rubbish service and quality nowadays!
